Nestled between the Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea volcanoes, The Village Course at Waikoloa (formerly known as Waikola Village Golf Club) has a beautiful and unique location that overlooks the Pacific Ocean. The verdant, rolling terrain is dotted with stands of young trees and lakes that were incorporated into the golf course’s design. Robert Trent Jones Jr., the course’s designer, tried to maintain the natural assets of the landscape while adding a few challenges such as fairways bunkers and doglegs. The golf course also features traditional raised greens that are subject to forceful prevailing winds. Although the course is challenging enough for the serious golfer, the relaxed pace and beautiful scenery appeal to players of all skill levels. Locals often consider The Village Course at Waikoloa one of Hawaii’s best-kept secrets.

I Recommend This Course
Men’s Club
This course allows 5somes with their mens club players. They all think they’re Tiger Woods!!! One guy had on his dingy stretched out neck t-shirt!!! What happened to golf etiquette? They drove onto the t-boxes and right next to the greens. Including the t-shirt guy parking his cart constantly right in front of the green, which contributed to the slow play because we’d have to wait for him to move to hit our ball. VERY rude. But what would you expect from locals?
